IBM rs6000 7025 F50
The IBM F50 server is the first of a new generation
of 1 to 4-way symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) workgroup
and enterprise servers that provide for unprecedented
commercial price/performance. The IBM rs6000 7025
F50 can be used as a stand-alone, multiuser application
server and has the connectivity to participate in
most currently installed UNIX and PC networks. It
can also be configured as a database or transaction
server with your choice of SCSI-2, UltraSCSI, or Serial
Storage Architecture (SSA) RAID disk by taking advantage
of the storage expansion capability of the system.
It is designed to allow for system growth in memory,
disk, media devices, and 1 to 4-way processor scalability
as needs grow over time.
IBM F50 server Description
The IBM F50 server server base offering includes
a 166MHz PowerPC 604e processor, 128MB of Error Checking
and Correcting (ECC) SDRAM memory (expandable to 3GB),
32KB of both instruction and data Level 1 (L1) cache,
an ECC X5 L2 cache comprised of 256KB per processor
in an 8-Way Set Associative implementation, a 4.5GB
SCSI-2 Fast/Wide disk drive, dual integrated SCSI-2
Fast/Wide controllers, an Ethernet** 10Base5/T controller,
an 8X CD-ROM, and a 3.5-inch diskette drive. Its SMP
design allows easy expandability through the addition
of a second, third or fourth 166MHz processor each
with its own L1 and L2 cache.
The IBM F50 server includes a 1-2 user, full function
AIX Version 4.2.1 package at no additional charge.
The IBM F50 serveris packaged in a 9 X 22 (nine I/O
slots, up to 22 disk/media bays - 10 standard and
12 optional) floor standing tower that is attractive,
compact and quiet. It is designed for easy installation
by users because it is shipped with the desired adapters
and internal devices already configured and installed,
and the AIX software optionally preinstalled.
The IBM F50 server server includes a modular disk
subsystem that allows fast, easy addition and replacement
of drives. It has a hot-swappable storage maximum
capacity of 163.8GB and a flexible I/O subsystem of
five PCI (32-bit), two PCI (64-bit), and two shared
(32-bit) PCI/ISA expansion slots. The I/O channels
supported are the industry common, high- performance
PCI bus in addition to the traditional ISA bus. The
bus implementation is a tri-peer PCI bus architecture
resulting in an aggregate I/O bandwidth of up to 400MB/sec.
All adapters have undergone thorough testing to assure
system compatibility.
